The Red Arrows have will be painting the skies at several events this summer including one today – with plenty of spots to catch the world-famous aerobatic display team in action across the UK and Europe
Prepare for a summer spectacle as the Red Arrows are set to paint the skies with their riveting displays of aerial mastery across Britain. The renowned pilots, fresh from wowing crowds at the British Grand Prix and Goodwood Festival, have a busy season ahead with an estimated 60 performances booked in the UK and on the continent.
Spectators at Silverstone were recently treated to an incredible view as the red jets zoomed overhead on Sunday as the Grand Prix celebrated its 75th anniversary. Squadron Leader Jon Bond shared his excitement as the Red Arrows prepared for their 61st season: “Training for the Red Arrows’ 61st season is well underway and we can’t wait to display at shows this summer.”
